Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for polymerization of ethylene and alpha-olefin, and more particularly to an apparatus and a method for economically copolymerizing ethylene and alpha-olefin by reusing reacting raw materials and solvents.
- lubricating oils include base oils and additives for improving the physical properties of the base oils, and the base oils are typically classified to mineral oils and synthetic oils.
- the mineral oils indicate naphthenic oils which are produced during the separation and purification of crude oils
- the synthetic oils indicate poly- ⁇ -olefin (PAO)s which are manufactured by polymerization of ⁇ -olefin produced during an oil refining process.
- PAO poly- ⁇ -olefin
- mineral oils had been mainly used as the lubricating base oils, however in recent years, the demand for the synthetic oils having the characteristics of low temperature fluidity, high viscosity index, low volatility at a high temperature, high shear and thermal stability and the like, is increasing.
- the synthetic oils compared with the mineral oils, have small viscosity variation according to temperature variation so that excellent lubricity is maintained regardless of seasonal change. Therefore, the synthetic oils have contributed to quietness and fuel efficiency improvement of vehicles, and also, they have some advantages of excellent durability and stability, long lifespan, and being environmentally friendly because of generating less sludge and waste oils.
- Engine oils using conventional mineral oils do not have sufficient physical and mechanical properties required for the recent engines which are downsized and optimized for high efficiency. Accordingly, the demand for the synthetic oils is increasing in the field of engine oils, gear oils, grease and so on, requiring high quality.
- poly- ⁇ -olefins (POAs) used as the synthetic oils are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,780,128, in which the POAs can be obtained by oligomerization of higher linear ⁇ -olefins such as decene-1(C10), dodecene-1(C12) and so on, in the presence of an acid catalyst.
- higher linear ⁇ -olefins such as decene-1(C10), dodecene-1(C12) and so on
- LAO linear alpha-olefin
- Japanese Unexamined-Publication 1982-117595 discloses a preparing method for synthetic lubricating oils by copolymerizing the ethylene and alpha-olefin, the synthetic lubricating oils having excellent properties in view of viscosity index, oxidation stability, shear stability, heat resistance etc.
- a catalyst composition composed by titanium compound and organic aluminum compound.
- the titanium compound catalyst has large catalytic activity, but molecular weight of the copolymer obtained has wide distribution and low regularity.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,767,331 discloses a method for copolymerizing the ethylene and alpha-olefin, specifically copolymerizing ethylene and propylene, by using vanadium-based catalyst composition containing vanadium compound and organic aluminum compound.
- the copolymer prepared by using vanadium-based catalyst composition has narrow molecular weight distribution and superior uniformity.
- the copolymer prepared by using vanadium-based catalyst composition generally has very low polymerization activity, and accompanies large amount of catalyst sludge so that it has a drawback of requiring the additional de-catalytic process, which is common problem on the 1st generation catalyst such as Ziegler-Natta catalyst.
- Japanese Patent 2796376 discloses a method for preparing synthetic lubricating oils by copolymerizing the ethylene and alpha-olefin, by using a catalyst system composed by specific metallocene catalyst and organoaluminum oxy-compound.
- the present invention provides an apparatus for polymerizing ethylene and alpha-olefin, comprising: a polymerization reactor, to which ethylene and alpha-olefin of reacting raw materials and solvents are fed and in which the reacting raw materials are polymerized in solution state, for producing a polymerization product of ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymer which is dissolved in the solvent; a separation section including a flash tower for separating unreacted ethylene and alpha-olefin contained in the polymerization product by distilling; and a stripper for separating low molecular weight oligomers having lower molecular weight than the ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymer contained in the polymerization product, by distilling; and a solvent recovery section for separating the low molecular weight oligomers from the solvents and low molecular weight oligomers which are separated and then for recovering the solvents.
- the present invention provides a method for polymerizing ethylene and alpha-olefin, comprising the steps of: copolymerizing ethylene and alpha-olefin of reaction raw materials in presence of solvents, to produce a polymerization product in which low molecular weight compounds containing unreacted ethylene and alpha-olefin, the solvents, ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymers and ethylene and alpha-olefin oligomers; separating the unreacted ethylene and alpha-olefin contained in the polymerization product by distilling; separating the solvents and the low molecular weight compounds having lower molecular weight than the ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymer and contained in the polymerization product by distilling, to obtain pure polymerization product; and separating the low molecular weight oligomers from the solvents and the low molecular weight compounds previously separated by distilling to recover the solvents, and then reusing the recovered solvents
- ethylene and alpha-olefin of reacting raw materials specifically lower alpha-olefin such as propylene etc., which are smoothly supplied and cheap, are efficiently copolymerized so that as well as synthetic oils having high quality and high performance can be prepared, it is economical since the reacting raw materials and solvents can be reused.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an apparatus for polymerizing ethylene and alpha-olefin according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a flow chart illustrating a method for polymerizing ethylene and alpha-olefin according to an embodiment of the present invention.
